It’s time to get out of beta and get this version onto WordPress.org/extend/plugins so more users can enjoy all the goodies. Once again, a big thanks to all the people who have helped test and fix the bugs that first got introduced way back when WordPress 2.6 was released. There’s so many of you I’ve lost track - but they are in the feed 
Click here to download Organize Series 2.0.8
Here’s a list of fixes/features with this new version:
New features
- Added a new argument to the “wplistseries” function - “number” which enables users to limit the number of series displayed
- Reworked the layout of Organize Series administration integration with WordPress so it “fits” with WordPress 2.7 - including showing “Series” in the Dashboard “Right Now” widget.
- Organize Series interface can be floated around and respositioned in the write/edit posts screen for WordPress 2.7
- moved the “Manage Series” menu item to the Posts submenu area for WP2.7 (previous versions stay in the same location)
Minor
- fixed an inconsistency with ’showlastupdate’
- fixed some bugs with the atom feed (was an early update…not sure if it’s still working correctly now)

Fixed a bug reported here. This was a pretty major bug affecting scheduled posts that are a part of a series, let me know if you have any problems with it!
Download Organize Series 2.0.8 development version
UPDATE (12/6/08): Just a heads up that the link above downloads from the trunk of the Organize Series subversion repository so you will get the bleeding edge version of Organize Series (currently at 2.0.8beta4). I’m not going to be responding to bugs listed here as frequently (unless I can reproduce easily…so make sure your report is as thorough as possible) because I’m ramping up to get a release ready for when WordPress 2.7 is released this week. OrgSeries 2.0.8beta4 currently WORKS with WordPress 2.7 RC1

In the last post, I talked about how you can show off the latest series in your sidebar. One of the caveats of the latest_series() function/widget is that it only shows one series. The “latest series” function is just a way of giving readers quick insight into the most recent series you’ve published to your blog and is the easiest to customize.
However, there is another more powerful function included with Organize Series that you can use to output a list of all the series you’ve written where you want that acts very similar to the “wp_list_categories()” template tag in the WordPress core. What that means is that if you’ve already got a handle on how to use “wp-list_categories” then you’ll have no problem with “wp_list_series()”. Let’s take a closer look:
The Widget
For those of you who are uncomfortable with editing your theme files and who are using a theme with widgets enabled there is a widget included with Organize Series that you can use to output the list of series in your sidebar.

One of the things that the Organize Series WordPress plugin does well is provide multiple ways for you to promote and “show off” the various series you’ve written. Since some of those possibilities aren’t easily visible to the new user this next few posts in the series will give you a list of all the different ways you can publicize your serial work.
Latest Series - <?php latest_series(); ?>
This template tag is one of the few features of Organize Series that is not automatically enabled right out of the box on fresh Organize Series installs. However, it is a powerful function that provides an easy way for you to promote the latest series you’ve published (or are in the midst of writing).
How to use it:
To use the latest_series() tag you need to be familiar with editing your theme files. There are some great pointers for this here, here, and here. The latest_series() template tag can be placed wherever you want - inside or outside of the WordPress loop. What will happen is that when the page is generated the latest_series template tag will be replaced by what you have included in the Latest Series Template in the Series Options Page. So you can control the output via the series options. By default, the latest_series tag will display the series icon for the latest series.

We’re going to conclude our look at the Series Options page in this post by looking at the “Latest Series” Template and the Series Icon Options.
Here’s what the “Latest Series Template” option field looks like (WP2.5):
This is the one template option that is not automatically added to your blog. The contents of this template control the output of the latest_series() function or the latest series widget. You can insert the latest_series() function wherever you want it to appear in your blog (manually into your theme files) or you can simply use the built in widget if you have widgets enabled for your theme.
This is how the default Latest Series output looks on my blog (to the left):
Of course like the other template options on the series options page you can use different tokens to control the contents of the latest_series() ouput. For instance you might want to use the %series_title% token to display the series title instead of the series icon. In future versions of Organize Series I’ll be adding more tokens that you can use.
